Parlay Ticket
A parlay is a type of wager where multiple outcomes are selected. Each of the outcomes must win in order for the parlay to win. Any point spread tie reduces to the next lowest number of teams in the parlay. Winning Sports Lottery tickets football parlay with a value of more than $600 must be cashed at Delaware Park, Dover Downs, Harrington Raceway & Casino or at the Delaware Lottery office in Dover. Select retailer locations may cash up to $1,500 (excludes IRS wins). Winning tickets can be mailed for processing to.
Point Spread Basics
- The ticket will cost the amount chosen for each parlay. If the bettor only has $300 they might choose to Round Robin the teams by two, so they have 28 different parlays for $10 each. The payout for each winning parlay is the same as it would be if the parlay bets were each made individually.
- A parlay is a type of sports bet in which you combine multiple individual bets (typically 2-10 bets) into one bet or “card.” Combining the bets gives you worse odds to win, but a larger reward for winning. The larger the amount of wagers included in your parlay, the larger the payout.
If there is a plus next to the team you selected - add those points to the final score for your team.
